I’ve always wanted to learn how to make sprites and pixel art, but I always got stuck. because I had no idea how the process should look like. Does anyone have any advice about going from unskilled to decent?
- baobun 1y agoStart by shamelessly imitating (in private). Copy, tweak and extend from styles and artists you like. Your own style will develop over time.

- runsonrum 1y agoI recently wanted to learn the basics to help my son and came across this article that made the most sense to me. Pixel Art Tutorial: Basics https://www.derekyu.com/makegames/pixelart.html https://www.derekyu.com/makegames/pixelart.html I have come across other articles that are similar in context but not as cleanly laid out. The article doesn't go into the usage of software though. I think the design work flow, within software, would be greatly helpful in the understanding of achieving a great outcome. At least in a faster manner. I hope that helps!
